Last week we finished up the 1.0RC2 release of MozMill.
The biggest new feature was is the Test Recorder. You can now hit the Record button and use the Application normally and create a test outline. I say “test outline” because it’s usually necessary after creating a recorded test to go in and fill it up with a few conditional wait calls, like waitForElement and waitForPageLoad. If you don’t the test runs too fast and ends up failing pretty quickly. We’re working on some future code to pick up things like new page loads so that we can add those waits in a recorded test but for now you’ll have to do them by hand.
We also have significantly improved some of the documentation.
